Mahonia is a genus of approximately 70 species of evergreen shrubs and, rarely, small trees in the family Berberidaceae, native to eastern Asia, the Himalaya, North and Central America. They are closely related to the genus Berberis and botanists disagree on whether to recognize a separate Mahonia.

  1. Beautiful - we have a couple of plants in the garden. Definitely great for early bumble bees :)

    1. I have one too, and yes the insects love it. Flowers for a long time and I think it smells nice as well.
